The report aims to present a comprehensive measurement framework for collecting and interpreting information on the adoption of new and emerging technologies by business sector firms in developing countries. This framework is crucial due to the existing data limitations and inadequate knowledge about the patterns of adoption and utilization of frontier technologies in productive sectors across developed and developing nations. It is important to note that even in the most advanced countries, the adoption and use of frontier technologies can be uneven and partial, particularly in specific sectors.
To address these gaps, there is a need for more comprehensive information regarding the sectors that are actively adopting frontier technologies, the specific parts of value chains where they are being implemented, and the types of firms that are embracing these technologies. Furthermore, it is essential to gain insights into the extent to which these technologies are being diffused within the economy, including their impact on firm-level characteristics such as batch size and product standardization.
Collecting and analyzing this information is vital for informing STI policies that aim to promote the use, adoption, and adaptation of frontier technologies in developing countries. By understanding the factors influencing technology adoption, policymakers can develop targeted strategies and interventions to facilitate the integration of innovative technologies into businesses and industries, thereby fostering economic growth, productivity, and competitiveness.
